These etudes must be used along with the Suzuki Violin School to learn
and master different positions. Dr. Suzuki recommends that first
position etudes be started when the student is working on Volume 2. The
student should always be careful that fingers are placed before the bow
moves. Dr. Suzuki repeatedly says, One, fingers -- two, bow -- three,
start. Since this is the first time the student plays an etude, the
teacher needs to explain its purpose.
